The only CW cancellation in recent months was America’s Next Top Model, the last remaining UPN holdover. It has been since picked up by VH1.

The pickups of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Jane The Virgin is good news not only for fans of the shows, but for quality TV in general, given the very high marks from critics. Both shows have scored high on Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes.

The news comes as Tribune Media – owner of thirteen CW affiliates, including WGN-TV in Chicago, has yet to strike an new affiliation deal with the network. The pickup isn’t likely to please Tribune Media CEO Peter Ligouri, who two years ago said the network shouldn’t be producing programs to those who are not watching television – notably the 18-34 audience, CW’s main target.
